Three singles in and chances are you’ve already decided whether you like the Bravery or
not, what with all the band catfight blather and 'An Honest Mistake'’s blanket airplay.
Whichever side of the fence you’re on 'Fearless' won’t change your mind; built around a
ghostly synth riff, it chugs along at a pleasant if predictable rate, coming on more
Duran Duran than any other band you could mention.

The problem is, it’s so slickly put together that any attempt to engage with the song just
slides off it’s shiny surface. Which may be the point – the _"I know that’s why you love
me chico"_ chorus coupled with a speedboat-laden video brings to mind disposable eighties
pop glamour of a very fashionable variety. While this may well see it follow its
predecessor into the charts, whether it floats your…er…boat probably depends on whether
you like your bands to at least look like they dress themselves.
